Leeds is hosting its first marathon in two decades today to raise money and awareness for Leeds Hospitals Charity.
The event has been named after Leeds Rhinos legend Rob Burrow MBE, who was diagnosed Motor Neurone Disease disease back in 2019.
In honour of him, the hospital hopes to build a specialist motor neurone disease care centre in the city.
